Stuk 0013 - Yemen Fort Attacked by R. A. F.

• 1964-04-15 (Vervaardig)

The United Nations Security Council has reproved Britain for the attack on the Harib Fort in the Yemen by planes of the R. A. F. as retaliation for the continued Yemeni attacks on the South Arabian Federation. Leaflets were dropped informing the occupants before the raid, and although the fort is in a completely isolated area the Yemenis claim that 25 people were killed.
